I have a large shared server that a number of people share,

from build 144 to 151a, and then from 151a to Solaris 11 GA (175b).
BUT, I can't find any specific details on how to make that work.
I would need to know what pkg repo and publisher syntax to use
for the first step going from 144 to 151a. And then the next step.
The release notes for 151a were no help. My publishers are a little
messed up and need to start fresh;
root@zcube:~# pkg publisher
PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS URI
solaris (preferred) origin online
[1]http://ipkg.sfbay.sun.com/dev/solaris/
opensolaris.org (non-sticky) origin online
[2]http://ipkg.sfbay/dev/
opensolaris.org (non-sticky) origin online
[3]http://ipkg.sfbay/release/
root@zcube:~# uname -a
SunOS zcube 5.11 snv_144 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris
Any help?

I've not tried this particular sequence, so I'd start by taking a clone
of the current BE in case everything goes badly.
So, after taking that clone, the first step is to remove the
opensolaris.org publishers:
pkg unset-publisher opensolaris.org
Next, set your solaris publisher to the release repo:
pkg set-publisher -G http://ipkg.sfbay.sun.com/dev/solaris -g
http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/solaris11/release solaris
Next try:
pkg update -nv
And see what it does. If it looks like it's taking you to build 151a
bits, great. If it doesn't, try uninstalling all the packages from
opensolaris.org:
pkg uninstall 'pkg://opensolaris.org/*'
and trying the update again. Once you get to the 151a bits, you should
be able to move forward to 175b by following the release notes. (You may
need to uninstall packages from opensolaris.org to move forward.)
Hth,
Brock
